Congratulations! Nothing like sitting at the ceremony thinking "finally done!". Do you have a job lined up?
I can't really "plug" a supplier, because I haven't really ordered from one yet (although, that might change in a few weeks ;)). I'm very wary of...
Thanks for the writeup BTowned. I too, like many reefers, am nervous to go on vacation. I have everything automated to where it can be left for about...
If you nitrite has already spiked, then you might be close to completing the cycle. In a 120 gal system, doing a 5 gal WC won't help too much. I dont...
Yup, mesenterial filaments. My green hairy mushroom does it once every few days...
I just looked over your build thread... when did you set this tank up? It looks to me like it's been up less then a week, which in that case your...
How big is the tang? In one gallon of water, it will likely die within a few hours from ammonia or lack of O2. What happened? Tank param? If it...
Thanks Travis! The orange encrusting is starting to recoup, I give it a month or two and it'll be fine. I'm also tempted to move it down a little......
Sounds like a fun endeavour. I think you are right about the plumbing, a tee or even a cross (4 way) to create 2 or 3 pvc runs across your tank....
I think we agree then? ;) The guy I bought my system from had a 36" fixture about his, supplimented by some additional PCs. He was only growing...
I'm not making my DT water slow down too much... I have 3x1050 koralias in there. I'm slowing down the "filter rate" of the tank, so to speak....
I just have to ask where you found this guy? Is he an LFS employee or something? Dumping whole containers of food, failing on a CO2 tank change,...
I guess thats the essence of my question... do the pellets release carbon to the watercolumn, or do the pellets host the bacteria, which is then...
I did some more research and thought on this last night over a few brews, and it seems there are two general thoughts. Some do not like powerheads...
I have read that some pellets (not sure about the ones used here) start colonizing bacteria on the surface to the point where they become like...
FTS and sump shots added to post #22
Sorry to hear of the loss...
Yup, i've looked into shipping from individuals overnight as well. Not even close to what the vendors can offer.
It looks like it was a great tank! I always find it fascinating to hear how this hobby has come such a long ways in only 10-15 years, I can only...
Haha, thats awesome! Can you give us some details on what you were using then, such as lights, filtering, media, etc?
